“Since approximately 2006, groups that manage commercial honeybee colonies have been reporting what has become known as colony collapse disorder—whole colonies of bees simply died, of no apparent cause. As time has passed, the disorder has been reported at sites all across the world, even as scientists have been racing to find the cause, and a possible cure. To date, most evidence has implicated pesticides used to kill other insects such as mites. In this new effort, the researchers have found evidence to suggest the real culprit might be high-fructose corn syrup, which beekeepers have been feeding bees as their natural staple, honey, has been taken away from them.

Commercial honeybee enterprises began feeding bees high-fructose corn syrup back in the 70′s after research was conducted that indicated that doing so was safe. Since that time, new pesticides have been developed and put into use and over time it appears the bees’ immunity response to such compounds may have become compromised.”

The researchers findings indicate that by the bees eating high fructose corn syrup instead of honey they are not being exposed to certain chemicals that help boost their immune system and allow them to fight off toxins, specifically those found in pesticides.

The enzyme P-coumaric is found in pollen walls and makes its way in the honey by sticking to the bees legs. P-coumaric naturally detoxifies the honey bees and allows them to fight off pesticides meant for other insects.

This news comes days after the European uniion announced that they would be initiating a ban on the pesticide group, Neonicotinoids. The EU commission may now put into effect a 2 year restriction on neonicotinoids found in pesticides. A number of studies have linked this group of pesticides to bee colony collapse disorder.

With this new information, a clearer picture begins to emerge. .................................read more)
